Saturday; i made a meaningful trip to my kampung with my emak@uwan.Deep inside my heart it was so meaningful,when i closed my heart i travelled few months back,i can see her with hundreds of wires in the ICU. My heart sank at that time,tears non stop falling down my cheeks at almost every time looking at her- we know how much a fragile body of 89 years old can take the pain.Ya Allah it was so hard at that time,the saddest moment seeing her laying down in ICU.I thought i would never be given this second chance. I prayed so hard and only Allah Swt knows what was inside my heart.

Then i remember the conversation i made with my brother@Pashik inside the ICU waiting room- my brother said as human when the hardship comes we easily succumbs to Allah,we easily insaf,we easily make promises but maintaining it is not easy he said.So true; sometimes over the time when everything is okay and back to normal we tend to forget,we tend to be swayed away,we tend to be complacent, ..i prayed to Allah Swt may I always be insaf,may i strive my best to love my mom from time to time,may i be more patient, may i not forget the promises i made in my heart..as Allah Swt already knows even before we open our mouth..He is Our Creator,Maha Pengasih Dan Penyanyang.Ya Allah Alhamdullillah,Thank You so much for whatever you have given me..balik kampung seems to be simple, nothing extraordinary but... not everybody have the chance and not everybody can really feel the happiness.And happiness is one thing that money can't buy..you stretch,you strive, you pretend...but if the happiness does not exist deep inside your heart..it will be like sitting in the rain and not getting wet.So sisters and friends may we always check our roots as that is "the way to go back to happiness".

In the car Tia Mia can't hardly sleep,they keep asking me "have we arrived at Kuala Pilah our World yet?"-so meaningful to them too as they see the kampung as "our world".They have travelled few places overseas but they can 'connect' with kampung really well,they can feel it.

The house,the kitchen is stilled the same,my brother,uwan and my maid reached there first as we travelled in separate cars,Tia Mia had to attend morning classes first.The house is clean as we have people to come at clean it from time to time.

Going back kampung is like going back to 'self catering farm:):)- you have to stop by at the town and get stocks for your stay.

While uwan house has basic things like soap,shampoo,toothbrush,salt,sugar,pepper but we always buy new set every time we go back..part of the fun.

Good breakaway for Heni too..when we go back kampung i always allow her to travel to and fro with my brother so that she can have 'little escapade' as my brother will always take uwan and her for 'satay' and little shopping along the way.

Well maintained compound..thank you to the indonesian people that stays in the kampung.And our neighbor kak ambit took care of uwan flower pots.

Uwan favorite rocking chair.

Emak..we thank Allah so much for the opportunity given kan..thank you so much...Uwan was so happy, full of energy and refused anybody to help her climb the hill.

These are the happy duo that brings happiness to everybody too..Alhamdulillah..tu sibuk nak ketuk semut tu.

Rumah Uwan on a hill facing a river and a bridge...no porche or lamborghini will pass by but cows and goats will flock on the bridge and stop by at the field to nibble the grass..i found it to be so serene..so peaceful:)

Uishhh pashik..bosarnya udang pashikkkkk:) Thank You Acik..he always join us bila balik kampung,get things ready for Uwan,went to the max to please the girls.Mulut garang a bit pashik ni but he got a very good heart....Pashik has beautiful life,he is fortunate to have wonderful daughters but they are big and married now..and Pashik likes to be meriah2 and i know he is very happy with kasih sayang from Tia Mia:) .The beauty of kasih sayang is ;it made you feel special.So i masak benda2 yang mengembira kan insan2 yang special..because me pun type yang 'dry' jugak..i don't really say sweet meleleh things but i show people my love through my cooking,caring etc etc.

Happy,puas hati girls dapat balik kampung..kiss2 to you girls and to the papa that drove us back kampung:)

If any of you wonder what is written in the frame hanged at the sink at uwan's house? This is what it says:):) I hanged it about 16 years back or more..masa tu masing2 kecik lagi suka sepah rumah,tak tolong uwan kemas especially basuh pinggan.Sebab i always kesian with my mom i ended up washing all dishes,i sakit pinggang and sakit hati..so i tulis ni..hee...heee.
